About V5 Presets

For professionals who require the highest performance audio and an intelligent way to control it, VERTEC V5 DSP is the next step forward in delivering the best sound possible. Superior horizontal coverage, pristine linear phase OmniDriveHD™ sound quality and rock solid LevelMax™ limiting are significant enhancements to VERTEC's already acclaimed performance. Full system integration is available with Crown VRACK or JBL Drivepack® DPDA modules using HiQnet Performance Manager or Powered by Crown app software for efficient configuration management and control.

JBL DPDA DrivePack® Input Module

The JBL DPDA (DrivePack Digital Audio) Input Module enables AES/EBU digital audio capability with analog audio backup, BSS Omnidrive HD™ digital signal processing and LevelMax multi-stage limiting. It is suitable for use on any JBL DrivePack-equipped loudspeaker model in the VERTEC DP Series and VP Series families of powered loudspeaker systems that is fitted with a DP-1, DP-2 or DP-3 JBL DriverPack assembly.

The Crown Audio VRACK features three built-in I-Tech 12000HD amplifiers with OmniDriveHD™ digital signal processing and LevelMax™ limiting and provides an easy-to-configure, plug-and-play solution that eliminates the need to build amplifier racks. Designed to work in conjunction with JBL VERTEC, VRX, and AE Series loudspeakers, the system's modular design is highly scalable and designed to meet the needs of both small and large sound systems. VRACK features a flexible input panel with AES, analog and network inputs and a loudspeaker output panel allowing multiple connection options for powering 2, 3 or 4-way systems. A captive suspension system allows VRack to be suspended and the system also features a global, universal power distribution system that with the flip of a switch can be set to meet US or international power standards.

Crown System Control App

The Powered by Crown app allows wireless control and monitoring of Crown Ethernet enabled devices and JBL Professional Drivepack® DPDA models. In addition to serving as a convenient control, test and monitoring interface, the same protocols as HARMAN® HiQnet System Architect™ are employed, allowing custom control panels from HiQnet System Architect to be imported into the Powered by Crown app for added flexibility and functionality.

HiQnet System Architect™ V3.0

System Architect 3 features a workflow-centered system design philosophy based on a diagrammatic representation of the installed or live sound venue. Devices are arranged by both their physical and logical placement allowing the designer to 'educate' System Architect about how they are to be used. In return the software is able to provide automation of many of the laborious system design tasks for free. Also included in System Architect 3 is AVB routing support for AVB-compatible HiQnet devices. Routing audio across a system has never been easier than with the drag-and-drop of signals from device to device in the dedicated AVB routing mode. Enhanced support for Crown VRack includes auto-population of VRacks discovered on the network into the System Architect Venue and auto-detection of VRacks on the network as a single device. See More
